About Us
Feel good. Live well.
At Good Life Yoga, everyone is welcome. We want to give everyone a fair chance to feel good and live well. “Come as you are and leave better.” The message you’ll receive here is that life is good and that you are amazing. Every class supports and uplifts not only your physical self but your spirit as well.
We are a community of friendly people who chose to live life to its fullest. Practicing yoga is a journey requiring a great deal of support. And at Good Life, you’ll receive that support and inspiration so that you can live your best possible life.
Studio Etiquette
It is useful to know a few yoga tips and protocol to help you feel more comfortable. Here are some guidelines to enhance your yoga experience.
Make yourself at home. Be at ease. You are an important person and you will be respected and honored. Good Life fosters a community of like-hearted, wonderful people who choose to practice being amazing. Enjoy yourself. Be patient with yourself. Honor your own limitations and celebrate your triumphs. Support one another on the path. There is no competition. It’s all good.
Please, leave your shoes, coats, handbags, etc. in the entryway. Turn off your cell phone. This is your time to just be you. Closed water bottles are allowed in the studio.
Arrive at least 5 – 10 minutes early to class. You will want time to set out your mat, chat with your friends or have a cup of tea. If you do arrive late, please come in quietly and roll out your mat after the short, opening meditation.
Leaving early is discouraged; however, if this is unavoidable, please let your teacher know ahead of time.
Try not to eat heavily 90 minutes prior to class.
Avoid wearing heavy scents such as perfume or lotions.
Wear comfortable clothing realizing that you will be bending or doing minor inversions.
If you sweat a lot, bring a towel and clean the mat with the spray bottle and paper towels located by the props.
Personal mats and eye pillows can be purchased at the studio.
Tell the teacher immediately if you experience pain. Most pain can be alleviated with correct alignment.
Tell your teacher if there has been a change in your physical, mental, emotional status. We are all people of the earth and we go through many changes. At Good Life we endeavor to manage these changes as best we can and to celebrate all the many unexpected blessings they bring.
Feel free to ask questions, take notes, sweat, smile and savor a new beginning. |
